Menu Update
While the supply chain issues around the nation have affected all of us in food service industry, we want to communicate that BSSD remains diligent in providing quality meals for your children. We are still able to offer several choices of main dishes as well as fresh produce daily. All students are still able to receive a full reimbursable meal, which includes a main entrée, fruit, vegetable, and milk. However, you may see occasional substitutions to our menus depending on what products we are able to get in from our distributors. We appreciate your patience while we navigate this current situation.
